Wellbeing! Collaboration! Team Building!

5.0 4 years ago

Comments: Happy and Healthy teams!

Pros:

This app enables peers, co-workers across the organization to take-up challenges and promotes healthy competition. Has facilitated team bounding as well as motivated the teams to remain healthy and mindful. The meditation and leaderboard features were instrumental in helping adapt to the #newnormal during Covid19 lockdown. The feature to redeem points for discounts and charity help contribute to the community and local businesses as well.

Cons:

Live playlist and a route map showing the daily jog pattern

Not really sure how GoVida works

2.0 2 years ago

Comments: I think if GoVida can solve their connection issue with 3rd parties, it would be much better. From my experience, it would be a no from me until those issues are fixed.

Pros:

I liked the idea of using a team/company wide fitness tracker. I thought this would be the fun thing to keep me driven outside of work to compete with myself to better myself with my physical health.

Cons:

Nothing worked, no connection with Nike Run Club or Apple Fitness. I was consistently working out after trying to connect my fitness/activity trackers, but saw absolutely no movement and support was not able to help.

Hi Logan, Many thanks for your feedback. I am very sorry that you have experienced an issue in connecting your fitness tracker. We do have a direct integration with Apple Health and I can help get you set up correctly. To resolve the issue would you email [email protected] and we can connect directly. Kindest Regards Chris

Go... Go... GoVida Go For It

5.0 last year

Pros:

The most impactful feature of GoVida is its real-time Activity data availability. The naming convention used in this product is self-descriptiveand that makes this very easy to use. Regarding Onboarding of new Employer/Organization is totally handled by the Admin team. The admin team works proactively on this.

Cons:

Currently, GoVida does not support data sync with the Health Connect. The development team is working on support for the Health Connect. Soon this functionality will be available for the users.

Pros:

It motivates the team and promotes healthy competition, to increase fitness and wellbeing.

Cons:

At first I thought my watch wouldn’t sync, as it’s a less known brand. But Govida helped with getting the information for my fitness tracker and it now all works well? No complaints.

GoVida great app!

5.0 10 months ago

Comments: Overall really positive. I enjoy using it and log onto app each day

Pros:

I like the access to Fitness workouts and mindfulness and meditation. I have enjoyed the team challenge Lands end to John O Groats- and would like to see more. It has been good for our workforce.

Cons:

I would like navigating around the apps different functions to be easier. There are a couple of workouts I'd like to do - for example runners stretch. However I sometimes struggle to find where I saw them. Maybe an option to " save your favourites" ?

Great app for personal wellness & community building!

5.0 2 years ago

Comments: We partnered with GoVida at the time of the pandemic which was marked by limited movement, anxiety, and feeling of isolation. Godiva provided a platform to move more, and feel a part of a larger community regardless of geographical location. It was a very positive partnership.

Pros:

I like the holistic approach to wellness - physical & mental health support tools. Daily steps /weekly goals support the most important - regular daily movement. Team challenges bring a competitive edge and an opportunity to build community and engage with colleagues on a wellness journey. All of that has many positive ripple effects - better relationships, less stress, more fun, and better organizational wellbeing.

Cons:

I miss the interactive content with other users. If there was a Feed where people's achievements are posted and we could either comment or engage through emotions would create a sense of stronger engagement. We had to make a separate chat online for that purpose. Some meditation records were too fast for relaxation. It would be helpful to have push notifications before the deadline to meet the goal expires. Existing features were easy to use and navigate but in the future additional features could be considered: water tracking, and cycle calendar.. . these features would make the users use the app more regularly.

Fantastic Wellbeing App

5.0 2 years ago

Comments: Employee wellbeing is important to us, and to me personally. We actively promote the app in-house and encourage staff to participate with rewards. We hold regular company competitions to drive healthy behaviour and this has an additional benefit of team bonding. Our last in-house contest saw our overall steps rise by over 55%

Pros:

I'm competitive, even with myself, so I use the app to track my step progress and compete against my colleagues. I really enjoy the in-house competitions we run. The mindfulness sessions are very informative so I listen to those almost daily too.

Cons:

A couple of times my steps didn't sync but I contacted customer service and it was sorted out immediately

Wellbeing Enabler and Motivator

5.0 4 years ago

Comments: A fantastic app that helps motivate and promote a more active lifestyles as well as other personal development attributes; also the inter-team challenges and leaderboard and dashboards definitely leads to an increase awareness and focus of ongoing wellbeing - the best Wellbeing App for inclusion in a Corporate Wellbeing Strategy.

Pros:

The overall objective to keep fit and healthy but without pressure, rather through fun and friendly team competition, equitably catering for all levels of physical fitness. A significant attraction is earning GoVida Rewards Points through tracking of step, attending wellbeing venues, attending mindfulness courses, online fitness sessions and attending specific challenges and redeeming these against a spectrum of rewards offerings, both Company Internal and externally, including charities. The Holistic nature of the content covering Physical, Mental and Lifestyle, which integrates well with Health Apps on most wearables to give an all-round daily, week and annual summary of activities and achievement. A very easy to enable and use Wellbeing Ap - stimulating even people who are not typically active, to join in and have fun - and get fitter!

Cons:

The absence of sleep tracking data - although I believe this is coming soon.

GoVida Unites our Staff!

4.0 2 years ago

Comments: Very good! Love how it brings our staff together and creates a fun atmosphere of competition

Pros:

Excellent displays used to show health data and step analysis. During team challenges everything is organized beautifully in the app and it is clear and easy how to use/track activity

Cons:

I am very tall (2 meters) and although I may walk the exact same distance as someone 1.5 meters, I have far fewer steps than they do. This puts me at a disadvantage during walking challenges. I should be rewarded for distance walked vs steps taken. Perhaps there should be a way in the app for it to know my height and then adjust accordingly

GoVida Review

4.0 2 years ago

Comments: Great and have recommended for friends to try and get their work places using it.

Pros:

The reward programme really helps motivation to hit daily step targets and the challenges to earn extra points are great as they give me something to aim towards.

Cons:

I feel on the daily mood/energy question they should have a report where you can look back and see your moods/energy levels over the past week/month etc. so you can look for patterns in when your mood and energy levels are at their highest and lowest.

Helping colleagues to be more active one step at a time

4.0 4 years ago

Comments: The app has been a great tool for my colleagues and I to measure how active we are, and to spurn us on to do more physical activity and walking - the competitive side works for some people, but for those who are less competitive there are other incentives that the app offers that have appealed to them e.g. points for venue check-ins, mindfulness videos etc

Pros:

The app is very easy to download, install and get started - no lengthy surveys to fill out or hoops to jump through, and the onboarding process for colleagues is very simple too. There's handy integration with smartphone apps and devices to allow easy syncing of data, and the app is clean, professional and simple to use and nevigate around.

Cons:

It's great to hear that many ideas that we've thought to enhance the app (e.g. intra-organisational leaderboards, different types of challenges etc) have already been thought about by the developers and they are in the process of being added in to future versions of the software.
